Seen here wearing an ‘AMG lumilectric magno’ paint job, the MercedesSLS AMG E-Cell promises to be the world’s first all-electric supercar, trumping the Tesla Roadster in both price and performance. The E-Cell will begin production in 2013. Power for the E-Cell will be provided by four electric motors – one at each corner – that are capable of revving to 12,000rpm. Power for the setup is said to be 519 horsepower and 649 lb-ft of torque, good enough for a 0-60 time of just 4 seconds. (via)
